The Midnight Festival

Seven years ago, Norman Tomac made a deal with a man who should never have been trusted. Now the debt has come due. When Norman dies, his son David inherits a million-dollar estate in Hollowbrook—a town he remembers as vibrant but now finds decaying, deserted, and strangely alive with secrets. David has spent two years rebuilding his life after a drunk driver killed his wife and child. He wants nothing more than peace. Instead, he finds Mr. Crowley. Every year, Crowley brings the Midnight Festival to Hollowbrook. For one week, the impossible becomes real. The dead return. The sick are healed. Desires are granted. But every miracle carries a price, and those who accept Crowley's bargains become prisoners of a darkness they cannot escape. Crowley senses something different in David—a power he cannot explain and a threat he cannot control. As the festival descends into madness, David is drawn deeper into a nightmare filled with twisted visions, possessed townspeople, grotesque creatures, and souls trapped by contracts made long ago. Armed only with an ancient rosary and his own refusal to surrender, David must confront the demon who promises to erase his pain and return everything he has lost. But Crowley has been preparing for something far greater. The Dark Rapture is coming. And when Hollowbrook becomes a battlefield between Darkness and Divine Light, David must lead a desperate handful of survivors into the heart of the Midnight Festival to destroy Crowley before the town—and everyone trapped within it—is condemned forever. The Midnight Festival is a dark, supernatural thriller of temptation, redemption, sacrifice, and the terrifying price of getting everything you ever wished for.
